Place-based planning

Place-based planning acknowledges that complex issues require approaches that are specific to a particular location or community. It puts communities at the heart of efforts by agencies and services to understand how complex issues play out in that particular place, and collaboration to develop place-based responses.

Successful place-based planning approaches are founded on trust, experience and a deep local knowledge, as well as strong commitment to collaboration and shared outcomes.

At RMCG, we bring the right mix of capabilities, mindsets and resources from both the community and key stakeholders to undertake place-based planning approaches for your complex issue.

Since its inception, RMCG has worked with geographically spread regional, rural and remote communities in Australia. We have built a team of almost 60 staff working across offices in Victoria (Bendigo, Melbourne, Torquay and Warragul), Tasmania (Hobart, Launceston and Penguin), New South Wales (Orange) and Australian Capital Territory (Canberra).

Our diverse geographical presence across Australia’s south-eastern region has allowed our consultants to draw on their inherent local knowledge to facilitate successful place-based planning projects in a range of communities and regions.
